	The European-XFEL is an X-ray Free Electron Laser facility located in Hamburg (Germany). The 17.5 GeV superconducting accelerator will provide photons simultaneously to several user stations. Currently 12 Wire Scanner stations are used to image transverse beam profiles in the high energy sections. These scanners provide a slow scan mode for single bunch operation. When operating with long bunch trains (>100 bunches) fast scans are used to measure beam sizes in an almost nondestructive manner. To operate fast scans multiple impacts on the beam loss system (BLM) and the charge transmission interlock (TIS) have to be taken into account. This paper focuses on the interaction between these systems and first experiences performing measurements.

	T. Wamsat, T. Lensch DESY, Hamburg, Germany
	The European XFEL MTCA based Beam Loss Monitor (BLM) System is composed of about 470 BLMs, which are part of the Machine Protection System (MPS). The BLMs detect losses of the electron beam, in order to protect accelerator components from damage and excessive activation, in particular the undulators, since they are made of permanent magnets. Also each cold accelerating module is equipped with a BLM to measure the sudden onset of field emission (dark current) in cavities. In addition some BLMs are used as detectors for wire- scanners. Further firmware and server developments related to alarm generation and handling are ongoing. The BLM systems structure, the current status and the different possibilities to trigger alarms which stop the electron beam will be presented.

The European-XFEL is an X-ray Free Electron Laser facility located in Hamburg (Germany). The 17.5 GeV superconducting accelerator will provide photons simultaneously to several user stations. Currently 12 Wire Scanner stations are used to image transverse beam profiles in the high energy sections. These scanners provide a slow scan mode for single bunch operation. When operating with long bunch trains (>100 bunches) fast scans are used to measure beam sizes in an almost nondestructive manner. To operate fast scans multiple impacts on the beam loss system (BLM) and the charge transmission interlock (TIS) have to be taken into account. This paper focuses on the interaction between these systems and first experiences performing measurements.
